Ahh, thanks for confirming.
So I guess that leaves it up to the user to bookmark each article.

Actually I tried exporting Firefox bookmarks but the resulting file is a complex mess that takes all day to add as book to the Calibre content server.

So I instead exported bookmarks from Netsurf, added the resulting hotlist.html file as a book to Calibre, and was able to open it with the NickelMenu entry:

menu_item :main :Calibre :nickel_browser :modal:http://XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX:8080/mobile

So I could then access the epub from the Kobo, and open the bookmarks, and hence the link to the Pocket source webpage.

(Of course you could just download the hotlist.html or epub to the Kobo and open it with the Kobo default reader - no NickelMenu entry needed.)

So the key is to update your bookmarks in netsurf every article you add to Pocket, and periodically sync or download the hotlist to the Kobo.

A stopgap until something better comes along...
